EXECUTION

PREPARATION

Examine and verify substrate suitability for product installation in the presence of Contracting Officer's Representative (COR).

Correct substrate deficiencies.

Fill.

Level.

Keep trenches dry during drainage system installation.

Clean interior of pipe before installation.

INSTALLATION - FOUNDATION DRAINAGE

Install products according to manufacturer's instructions // and approved submittal drawings //.

When manufacturer's instructions deviate from specifications, submit proposed resolution for COR consideration.

Trenching, Excavation and Backfilling:

Perform trenching, excavation and backfilling according to Section 31 20 00 EARTH MOVING. Make 1/8 bends changes in direction of drain lines. Use wye fittings at intersections.

Bedding:

Place and compact graded bedding at bottom trench, minimum 6 inches deep. Rest section firmly through entire length, with recesses formed for bell joints. Fully support pipe lower quadrant with bedding, except bell joint recesses.

SPEC WRITER NOTES: Include filter fabric when required by Geotechnical Engineer.

// Filter Fabric: Place drainage pipe on filter fabric //.

Pipe Laying:

Install PE and PVC Pipe according to ASTM D2321 and ASTM F758.

Lay drain lines to grades and alignment, with continuous fall in flow direction and as indicated on Drawings.

Place bells ends, face upgrade.

Lay drain lines and firmly bed in granular material minimum 75 mm (3 inches) below invert to top of pipe true to grades and alignment, and slope uniformly between elevations shown on foundation drainage drawings. Keep trenches dry until pipe is in place and granular material backfill is completed, 300 mm (1 foot) above top of pipe, unless otherwise noted.

Lay perforated pipe, perforations down. Lay plain end pipe, closed joints, held in place with two No. 9 spring steel wire clips at joint or standard clay collars.

Foundation Subdrainage: Install pipe pitched down in flow direction, minimum slope 0.5 percent, minimum cover 900 mm (3 feet), unless otherwise indicated.

Underslab subdrainage: Install piping pitched down in flow direction, minimum slope of 0.5 percent.

Install gaskets, seals, sleeves, and couplings according to manufacturer's instructions and as follows:

PE Joint: ASTM D2737 and AASHTO HB17, Division II, Section 26.4.2.4, “Joint Properties”.

PVC Joint: ASTM D3034 with elastomeric seals gaskets, ASTM D2321.

Perforated PVC Joint: ASTM D2729, with loose bell and spigot joints.

Install cleanout extensions as indicated on Drawings and as follows:

Preplaced Crypt Field Underdrain Cleanouts: Install as indicated on Drawings and set not to interfere with mowing operations. Provide concrete anchorage for plastic tops. Check drain lines before backfilling. Remove obstructions and recheck lines.

FIELD QUALITY CONTROL

Field Inspections:

SPEC WRITER NOTE: Section 01 45 29, TESTING LABORATORY SERVICES includes VA provided testing for large projects and contractor provided testing for small projects. Coordinate testing responsibility.

Field Tests: Performed by testing laboratory specified in Section 01 45 29, TESTING LABORATORY SERVICES.

PROTECTION

Protect pipe from and aggregate cover from damage and displacement until backfilling operation begins.
